Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW HAD PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED INFORMATION ON THIS PROBLEM. SEE ODI ID #766182. SHE HAS NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY NHTSA. THE FORD DEALER TOLD HER "THAT'S WHAT PARKING BRAKES ARE FOR." MOST 1996 TAURUS MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS. COULD YOU CHECK THE VIN SHE SUPPLIED TO SEE IF IT WAS RECALLED? IF IT WAS NOT RECALLED, PERHAPS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. A "ROLLING PARK" IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE. DT
